THE "ENAMlNER" DEAD.
After Years struggle 1t Gives up tho
Ghost.


Last Saturday morning many OF the cis.
zens Of Dillon were surprised at reading in
the EXAMINER the announcement Of its own
death. The publisher stated, in substance,
that the concern had always carried
heavy Indebtedness, and that the patronage,
both present and prospective, did not war
rant continuance OF the struggle.
Wright told reporter Of the TRIBUNE,
last Saturday, that had he not succeeded in
getting the contract for doing th( county
printing, he would have stopped 'Pub'ica-
tion three months ago.
No papers were sen, out OF town. only
town subscribers being served with the
go<,d.by issue.
The TRIBUNE Pub. Co. purchased the
paper stock, subscription Isis, good will.
and printing contract with Beaverhead
county The se,ni-weekly has been dis
continued and the advance paid subscrip
tions will be filled with the TRIBUNE.
! Those who owe for the Examiner will set
| tie for the same at :his Office.
| Wright, the former publisher Of .he Es
amix>r, left town Monday night, and since
then it is learned that he is greatly missed
BY several large creditors, among them be.
ing John X. Wilson, Dillon, K. NJ. Cob
ban, Butte, and the Pioneer Press Co,
St. Paul. There are several others in
town who arc in for small amounts. Mr..
Cobban came down from, Butte Wednes-
day to look after the prisstlng material ou
which he has claims.
! 1t was not much Of a surprise TO us,
when, Il few days before the last issue Of the
Examiner, we learned that the paper
would suspend publication. When the
paper was started it looked like hazard
Gus undertaking. We knew the field st'
well, we doubted the ability OF anyone to
l establish. the second paper in this county
, The E,somi"er had everything in its favor,
but it couldn't make Il live Of it.
, We hope it is settled to the satisfaction
r OF the few dissatisfied citizens, who favored
the advent Of II second paper, that the town
I and county can afford support to only one
r newspaper. Being that one. We cannot
h afford to be strongly partisan else we lost
Z a large portion Of our support and leave
!. one half Of our citizens without politica
a representation. The only apparent course
e open to us, which, would be attended will
